Ok, CALVIN. SERIOUSLY?!

I come back from Target to find dirt all over Mr. Springs recliner because the DOG had gotten into a terrarium Mr. Spring made and ate a fern. REALLY? Why can't you just chill out while we're gone, maybe take a nap and enjoy the quiet instead of freaking out and doing bad things. I know you know better, I know it.

On a positive note he had a really great report during his vet visit today. I guess he had to do something bad since I took him to the dreaded vet where they all love him. Ridiculous drama queen.

Once again I am sure my hopes will be dashed. I read reviews of the new dog food I am transitioning Casey to and people rave about how it cleared up their hot mess of a dog. Please let it work for him.

In regards to Vagazzling: They just want to get into the goods without worrying about getting scratched up by fake crystals. ~spring1onu~

x, what food is it? Just curious, I'm always looking at different foods for Mr. Fern Eater.

Tell Mr Fern Eater to wish Mr Yeasty good luck

I said Queso de Frier, and you bring me Queso Fresco! NOT the same, pal. What am I supposed to do with this stuff? It has no taste!

You can fry most any cheese if you just dredge it in flour/cornstarch, so you can still use this one. The difference with a frying cheese (like Latin American queso de freir, or haloumi) is that it can be fried as is.
We did a play on grilled cheese in which the cheddar was dredged and breaded and deep-fried. So, it was like an extra-crispy grilled cheese sandwich.

I got some spray for his skin at the vets today so it will be interesting to see if it helps at all. He's definitely not having as severe a skin issue since we moved here, but it's still there.

Mr. Bad Skin/Bad Back/Needs-a-teeth-cleaning/Can't-stop-being-bad/Spent-a-mortgage-payment-at-the-vets wishes Mr. Yeasty good luck on the new food!!

That's what I was going to use next time because while I like the smoked gouda, it's a little strong. How different are queso fresco and cojita or are they similar? I can't remember which our grocery carries, but I know Mr. Picky likes cotija enough to eat it in the bread.

Last night he said "Wow, we need to put little hamburgers in these!!" and then "These are just so much fun..." about the bread. I'm glad to have something different to make that's so easy and that he actually likes.

it turned into a circular argument with the same people saying the same things over and and over and over some more.

i think we need to step back and get SOME distance from it. the topic will always be there and will not go away. we can't solve it by going round in circles...

Email Gretchen and ask her why she locked the thread or whatever. They said they are working on getting new mods, revamping the rules and so on. Just let it go and see where things end up when they are done doing that. if you still aren't happy, stop posting here and start your own board where you can have the control that you're looking for.

I scored some Reese's peanut butter Easter eggs at Target today on clearance, which I was totally shocked to come across since those should have been long gone by now. They weren't in the Easter section with the other clearance items so that's probably why, but I grabbed 4 packs because I wasn't sure how much they would be. Oh my word, .95 EACH!!! Why didn't I get more to hide away!!! WHY!!!
